Spring Has Sprung!
Zoey loved spring! It was her favorite season after summer. Though winter was good because winter had Christmas in it. Christmas was the best and this year she had met Santa Claus! She even drove his sleigh! But now it was spring. Spring meant a lot of good things and one of those things were the Asgardians birthday.

Zoey was a little confused about how they didn't know the actual day they were born and Mom couldn't really explain it either, but they were okay with just spring as their birthday. Birthdays meant parties and Zoey had decided that there HAD to be a party.

A party was her favorite thing right after Christmas. She LOVED parties and this would be the bestest birthday party ever!

She knew she couldn't do it alone so she went seeking help. Mom. Grace. Ohu. Any of them, or all would help her. They HAD to.

Dawn could be found in the living room, quietly perusing a book.

"Hi Dawn!" Zoey beamed as she wandered through. She eyed Dawn. How did this work? Dawn was not Asleif, but she was in a weird way. Did that make it her birthday too?

Grace made her way into the living room, backpack slung over her shoulders, having just come back from a long day at school. "Hey Dawn, Zoey," she said with a smile.

"Hey Grace," Dawn said with a wave. "Hey, Zoey. What's up?"

Zoey eyed her for a moment and wondered if she should tell. Dawn was Alseif, right? It was confusing.

"We're planning a party," she said. "Want to help?"

"Does it involve more letter writing?" Marlow appeared with them. She was still confused by the letters Zoey had them write during the winter holidays.

Syd had spent the remainder of the day helping Sarah cook. They had decided on going with a cookout, but salad needed to be made along with other side dishes like potato salad. Bread was baked fresh along with a huge cake. Sarah took care of decorating the cake while Syd worked on husking corn and getting potatoes ready for the grill.

Once it was getting close to the time to eat, Syd and Sarah carried the meat out to the barbecue. Hot dogs, burgers, steaks, chicken and pork were grilled up along with the potatoes and corn on the cob.

She had even managed to get a cask of mead for the occasion. It had cost a pretty penny to have it driven down from up north, but she wanted to make this special for the birthday boy and girls.

She watched Zoey, Ohu, Marlow and Grace prepare the decorations. She didn't say anything. They were busy and keeping out of trouble.

It didn't take them too long to get the food on the table and call everyone to eat.

Dawn looked around and then over at Ohu. "She's going to kill you, you know that, right?"

Avery arrived a little later than he wanted, but purchased a couple of cheesecakes for the occasion. He hoped that Zoey and the Asgardians liked them, and looked at the decorations in surprise as he's led into the dining area.

"Wow. You guys go all out for parties, don't you?" he asks.

Syd greeted Avery with a smile. "Of course we do. We don't believe in doing anything halfway."

They had really gone all out with the decorations. One would swear they were in Asgard and not LA. Which Syd could say with some certainty now seeing how she had been to Asgard. Talk about a business trip.

"I'm glad you could make it."

"Avery!" Zoey squealed and ran up to him to wrap her arms around his waist for a hug.

"I wouldn't have missed it, Sydney. So...this party is for Aridis, Halbjorn and Aslief, right? I hope they like cheesecake." he says, handing the cheesecakes over.

"Zoey!" he exclaims, and hugs his daughter back. "Did you plan all this? I heard this party was going to be awesome, and well, that lead me to think of only ONE person." he says.

Hours later the party was winding down and Syd thought it went well. There were no major catastrophes or other events that would have ruined it. It was a good party and it looked like the Asgardians had enjoyed it.

There was cleaning up to do of course, but she would get to that after she talked to Avery. She had something for him and she wanted to give it to him before he left.

She walked over to where he was looking out over the cliff at the ocean. "Got a minute?" she asked.

Avery loved the water; it was soothing, and after the great time he'd had with everyone, he was just trying to unwind before heading home.

When Sydney approached, Avery favored her with a tired smile.

"Of course. Is everything okay?" he asks.

"Yes, of course," she said with a tired smile of her own. "I just wanted to give you something before you leave. What did you think of our party?" she asked as she reached into a pocket.

"I loved it. It was great. I still don't know how you manage around so many extraordinary people, but you keep them all grounded. That makes you pretty extraordinary yourself." Avery says.

He watches her for a moment as she reaches into her pocket, wondering what she'd be giving him.

Syd blushed and tucked some hair behind an ear. She had never been really good at taking compliments. "Thanks."

She pulled a small flash drive out of her pocket and offered it to him. "This has copies of all the photos I have of Zoey since the time she was born."

Avery's smile brightened at the revelation of what was on the flash drive. He looks at Sydney, wonder and surprise on his face.

"Thank you, Sydney. You don't know how much I appreciate this. Thank you." he says, taking the flash drive and holding it.

"I can't wait to look at all of them." he says.

It's been a long few weeks. The shoot for the movie went long - especially since there were drug runners in the area and that required his non-Hollywood skill set. He swears he's a magnet for tr -

He comes through the gate, obviously having missed a party. Syd is smiling and doing that nerve thing with her hair at a guy he's not sure he knows by...that cliff.

Well, shit.

He goes and parks his car. He'll clean up while she talks to what's-his-name.

Syd walked back from the cliff and was a little surprised to see Simon. "You're home," she said with a smile. "You missed the birthday bash, but there's some leftovers."

His mood is still a stark contrast to hers. "Noticed. Sorry about that. The directors, I swear, hire me to fumigate areas more than act."

"Who's over there?" he tries to ask casually.

"It's okay. It was an impromptu party. Zoey's idea."

The dark mood didn't go unnoticed and she was about to ask what was bothering him until he asked about Avery.

"That's Avery. He's Zoey's father. I invited him to give him and kids a chance to get to know each other. Also to give Zoey a chance to feel more comfortable around him. I could introduce you if you want."
